Well, I have a friend who is pretty crazy too. In fact, she's self-confessed crazy :o) Her name is Kari, her blog is My Crazy Adoption and she is really, super cool. And she's really passionate about orphan care.
What does all this have to do with lime green? Well, she started selling totes to help raise funds for her sons upcoming mission trip to Ethiopia & Uganda. Her son has only been to Ethiopia one time...when he went with Kari & her husband to get their beautiful daughter Zoie. He became horribly ill because of the water and realized the desperate need for water in Ethiopia. He and several students (Pirates dig a well) partnered with Glimmer of Hope and raised $10,000 to build a well in Ethiopia!! How awesome is that? And now...he gets to go back to the place where he got so sick and watch this process begin. We serve an awesome God, don't we?
Ok, ok...I still haven't gotten to the lime green part yet have I? So the totes she were selling were cute...really cute. But they weren't lime green. For whatever wacky, crazy and weird reason, I will only carry lime green purses, totes, etc. So, I casually commented to Kari about how much I loved them but I couldn't make a purchase. Kari told me that if I ordered one...she would FIND a lime green one just for me. Did I mention how much I love her?
So, here's the tote. I loved it so much...I bought 2. One for me and one for you! Yes, you. :o) Whoever isn't completely bored out of their mind by this post and has gotten this far, you can with this adorable tote. Before I go any further....here is my disclaimer. More than anything, I'd love for you to just make a purchase :o) Please visit the My Crazy adoption store and see all the wonderful totes she has for sale!

ReplyDeleteDawn, I want this wonderful lime green tote so I can be just like you! (hee,hee,hee) Love the project, love the cause. Hate that there are orphans and places in this world that don't have clean water. Love that God has a plan!!! jean
